Application Area:Library production for NGS utilizing NEB chemistries
'There is a very steep learning curve, but once you've accomplished that the instrument works well. It took us almost a year to produce our first library. One of the problems (not Beckman's) is that NEB continues to change their protocols and it is very difficult to reprogram volume changes (Beckman's problem) the way the software works. It's similar to using HTML code rather than being able to simply make changes in the software available to the end user. These types of changes have to be done by the Beckman field rep and they are reluctant to pass along that information. '

'We have three Biomek NxPs, one MC and two Span-8. They are good quality handlers with good precision. Excellent software, user friendly but at the same time very versatile through scripting interface. Light curtain is excellent for pausing the system at the exact right time. Disposable tips are good quality at a reasonable price. Drawbacks: MC cannot change between formats (96well, 384well), although Span-8 can switch between fixed tips and disposables (or a mix). Price is at the higher end. Span-8 disposable tips have to be discarded. Service is excellent in our area. Very difficult to integrate the safety system of the NxP with the safety system of our integrated robots as there is no hardware interface to the NxP safety.'
